Investor Day

At each F.I.S.T. World Series event, we run a networking event for start-ups and investors either the day before or after the one day conference. This is a great opportunity for start-ups to validate the concepts, identify investors and potential clients and advisors. We know that your time is precious, and we also want to make sure you meet the right connections and get value out of the day. Therefore each start-up will have an opportunity for at least two to five, 1-1 (20 minute private sessions) with an Investor who is genuinely interested in speaking with you. This is all organized seamlessly behind the scenes in our app.
